Ultimate communication capacity of quantum optical channels by solving the Gaussian minimum-entropy conjecture

V. Giovannetti, R. Garcia-Patron, N. J. Cerf +1

Optical channels, such as fibers or free-space links, are ubiquitous in today's telecommunication networks. They rely on the electromagnetic field associated with photons to carry…

A quantum information approach to statistical mechanics

Gemma De las Cuevas

We review some connections between quantum information and statistical mechanics. We focus on three sets of results for classical spin models. First, we show that the partition fun…

A new fission-fragment detector to complement the CACTUS-SiRi setup at the Oslo Cyclotron Laboratory

Tamás Gábor Tornyi, Andreas Görgen, Magne Guttormsen +4

An array of Parallel Plate Avalanche Counters (PPAC) for the detection of heavy ions has been developed. The new device, NIFF (Nuclear Instrument for Fission Fragments), consists o…

Bosonic fractional quantum Hall states on the torus from conformal field theory

Anne E. B. Nielsen, Germán Sierra

The Kalmeyer-Laughlin state, which is a lattice version of the bosonic Laughlin state at filling factor one half, has attracted much attention due to its topological and chiral spi…

Tensor Networks and Quantum Error Correction

Andrew J. Ferris, David Poulin

We establish several relations between quantum error correction (QEC) and tensor network (TN) methods of quantum many-body physics. We exhibit correspondences between well-known fa…

Topology and Criticality in Resonating Affleck-Kennedy-Lieb-Tasaki loop Spin Liquid States

Wei Li, Shuo Yang, Meng Cheng +2

We exploit a natural Projected Entangled-Pair State (PEPS) representation for the resonating Affleck-Kennedy-Lieb-Tasaki loop (RAL) state. By taking advantage of PEPS-based analyti…
